Control panel - regional and language options - languages - install files for east asian languages... then details - add - select Japanese
And then click on Apply, and you should be good. |

What the Funk, do you have a Hangul 97 or Hangul 2002 program?
You can get Japanese out of a Hangul program by hitting shift/space bar.
To get back to English or Korean, hit the toggle key. |

Thanks mirthridates. Okay, I did this and Im half way there. I cant set the input mode as romanji so I have no idea which keys to type to get the right symbol to come out... I also cant figure out how to add the stress marks to the symbols to change from ke to ge for example. Will post this on the Japan forum as well... |

you simply type Japanese as it sounds - it is by and large phonetic e.g.
ohayo will give you the three hiragana symbols o-ha-yo and then, if you use your Hanja key you should be able to toggle some Kanji (though ohayo is very rarely written with kanji).
That should do it for you. |

I finally got it..the porblem was that I couldnt type it in romanji, only in direct kana which was near impossible since there are no kana symbols on my keyboard.
